HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN A SLIP-AND-FALL ACCIDENT?

Maine & New Hampshire Premises Liability Lawyers

An unexpected accident like a slip and fall can be a frustrating and painful
experience. It can be a major disruption to your daily life, affecting
your ability to go to work and take care of your daily routine. You may
find that time spent away from work for recovery has limited your ability
to pay expensive medical bills as well as other costs of living. It is
unjust that you should have to pay for the burden and inconvenience caused
by an accident that never should have happened.

able to help you in this situation. We are committed to providing clients
with the effective legal representation they need to obtain compensation
for injuries caused by the negligence of another. With over six decades
of legal experience, we have the extensive legal knowledge and uncompromising
will to win that produces outstanding results.

Common Causes of Accidents

The negligence of a property owner can cause or contribute to a number
of potentially dangerous conditions.
Among some of the most common causes of accidents are:

Insufficient lighting

Debris or spills on floors

Missing or loose railings in stairwells

Improperly maintained elevators or escalators

Unfenced swimming pools

Unrestrained animals

Torn carpeting

Lack of adequate security

Failing ceilings

Icy sidewalks

Cracks and potholes in parking lots

In order for a premises liability claim to be successful, it must be proven
that your injury was the direct result of a dangerous condition that the
property owner knew about, or should have known about, and failed to correct.
A Maine personal injury attorney from Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. can investigate
your case in an effort to help you obtain a just amount of compensation
for your injuries.
